Issuance of Shares: | Promptly following the vesting of the Performance Stock, if any, the Company shall issue one Share to you for each Share subject to this Performance Stock Award which has been determined to vest by the Compensation Committee in accordance with the vesting schedule attached as “Exhibit A.” Such Shares shall be registered in your name (either in book-entry form or otherwise) promptly following such vesting. |
Restrictions: | Until Shares in satisfaction of the Performance Stock are issued, the Performance Stock granted under this award shall not be subject to transfer, sale, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or any other means of disposition, whether voluntary, involuntary or by operation of law as a result of a judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy).

Forfeiture: | Except as otherwise provided in a change in control agreement or retention agreement between you and the Company, if any, the following forfeiture provisions shall apply to the Performance Stock awarded to you under this Agreement: | ||
